Remember when you thought water polo would never collide with 90’s rap legends? Well, think again! Maggie Steffens, a USA Women’s Water Polo player, just got a major assist from none other than Flavor Flav. Steffens posted on Instagram about the challenges faced by female athletes, particularly those in lesser-known sports like water polo. Among other things, she mentioned the financial struggles many Olympians face in chasing their dreams.
Enter Flavor Flav, the iconic hip-hop artist known for his hype man skills and his love for girl power. In a comment that has Steffens and the entire water polo world buzzing, Flav offered his full support to the team. He promised to not only sponsor Steffens herself, but the entire team! This is a huge win for these amazing athletes, and a major sign of progress for women’s sports as a whole. It’s not every day a hip-hop legend steps up to champion a sport like water polo, but that’s the beauty of it – sometimes, the coolest supporters come from the most unexpected places.
